vamac53 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Hi, I used to use fsuipc years ago with fsx. Now I just received new heavy duty "cyberpower i220" gamer desktop with 6850 graphics. all has worked well with fsx until today. The fsx works, but when i installed 4.7 version of fsuipc, and then go into fsx, after loading scenery, traffic etc to 100%, instead of the game being on the screen, it just autocloses the program fsx. I have tried everything (tho I am not a computer guy by any stretch). I did get a error from my windows 7 "Program Compatabilty Assistant" though saying "This program might not have installed correctly", even though it got to the registration page (where I clicked cancel). I dont mine paying for the registration, if that's the case. but it did work yesterday. I am using AIRSOURCE . but I tried uninstalling fsx, and reinstalling, tried uninstall, and reinstall fsuipc, and fsx just does not want to work when I have fsuipc running. It did work yesterday briefly. this below, is copied and pasted from my computer file of installing fsuipc: please help. thx Mike """""Installer for FSUIPC4.DLL version 4.758 Looking in registry for FSX install path: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\10.0 Parameter"AppPath" ... >>> OK!

Pete Dowson Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I used to use fsuipc years ago with fsx. Now I just received new heavy duty "cyberpower i220" gamer desktop with 6850 graphics. all has worked well with fsx until today. The fsx works, but when i installed 4.7 version of fsuipc, and then go into fsx, after loading scenery, traffic etc to 100%, instead of the game being on the screen, it just autocloses the program fsx. You supplied the Install log, but isn't there a Run-Time log (FSUIPC4.LOG)? I'd need to see that. If FSX is loading to the 100% mark it sounds like a corrupted weather file (WX file in your Documents Flight Simulator X Files folder), or maybe the wxstationlist.bin file in the same folder as your FSX.CFG (i.e. in C:\Users\Mike\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX). Try deleting that and rpelacing it with the default one in the FSX Weather folder. Otherwise I need to see the FSUIPC4 log please. Incidentally, the Install log shows this: Checking version of FSX.EXE:... Version 10.0.60905.0 (Need at least 10.0.60905.0) Checking compatibility with installed SimConnect: Found SimConnect build 60905 (Original) which means you are using the original buggy version of FSX. I would strongly advise you to download and install the SP1 and SP2 updates. There were lots of problems in the original release which are fixed by these updates.

vamac53 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Pete, thanks for quick response.... I wasted 8 hours messing with this. Come to find out, had I read your forum posts prior to, I would have saved alot of stress. I did install service pack 1, then sp2, and that seems to have fixed the problem. Though I've only quickly checked it, but I loaded a flight, including flight plan, and airsource flight, and all seemed hunky dorey. Hopefully that was the fix. again, thanks and sorry for wasting your time. It looks like you are busy here. again, thanks buddy. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamac53 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 actually, I ran one flight with myaas, and sp1 and 2 installed. Everything was perfect. Then on the return flight I was 70 minutes into an eighty minute flight when an error msg came on and said fsuipc has stopped working and caused a fatal error in fsx. The game didnt save my flight like fsuipc should, and when I reloaded the game fsx, it was back at the original screen Friday harbor with the Trike craft flying, and also the joystick buttons I programmed into it, all had to be redone, as they went back to default as well. please help. thx Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Dowson Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 actually, I ran one flight with myaas, and sp1 and 2 installed. Everything was perfect. Then on the return flight I was 70 minutes into an eighty minute flight when an error msg came on and said fsuipc has stopped working and caused a fatal error in fsx. It certainly sounds like something you have got added into fSX is using FSUIPC wrongly. Either that or there is something very wrong with your FSX installation. Please, I can't help without details. Find the Windows error log entry for the crash. Right clcik on "My Computer" and select Manage, then look in the Event viewer -- Windows Logs - Application, find FSX and the details. It should confirm FSUIPC4.DLL and provde a crash code and a module offset. The game didnt save my flight like fsuipc should, and when I reloaded the game fsx, it was back at the original screen Friday harbor with the Trike craft flying, and also the joystick buttons I programmed into it, all had to be redone, as they went back to default as well. FSUIPC always saves the options when you change them, so it never loses them. Unfortunately FS isn't as well behaved. Pete, I didnt see a fsuipc4 LOG fileso I found 2 others I could open with notepad. You have Windows set to hide filenames from you and instead simply tell you they are text files or configuration files. A log file is a text file, with the filename FSUIPC4.LOG. The configuration file s FSUIPC4.INI. The log file sohws a perfectly normal run, no crash. It terminated correctly. However, the session the log relates to only lasted 21 seconds. It also shows that you haven't registered it, so I'm now wondering why it is installed. What programs or add-ons are you using which requires it? An unregistered FSUIPC is really doing nothing much at all unless it is there to support some application. Naturally, the log which would be more interesting and useful is the one which is available AFTER the session where you got a crash. ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER OF WHY FSUIPC SHUT DOWN FSX AND CAUSED A FATAL ERROR WOULD BE APPRECIATED. Why are you now SHOUTING? That isn't warranted. An FS session which crashes after 70 minutes is most likely cras hing because of things like memory failure, overheating, or, possibly, corruptin in memory due to bad or corrupted scenery elements. Maybe your crash is more related to the area you arrived into at that time. Crashes caused by memory failure or corruption are notoriously difficult to locate, and can cause a crash in almost any part of the FSX program, including FSUIPC which is merely operating as another FSX module. Without more details, as I mention, the only way to narrow down your crash problems is by a process of elimination. As you haven't registered FSUIPC you don't have access to its Autosave facility which would have enabled a repeat of the few minutes leading up to the cradh, to determine whether it is locality-related or time-related. Maybe you can try to re-create that point in any case? Regards Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamac53 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I will register today. at sim mart, correct???? I wasnt shouting with CAP letters... I was just showing where it was me talking AFTER the long run of computerese writings. Just to differentiate the end of the computer copy and paste, and where I started talking again. thx buddy... hopefully by registering it may help some Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I will register today. at sim mart, correct???? Please don't purchase FSUIPC unless you actually want to use any of its facilities. Browse through the user guide (installed in your FS Modules\FSUIPC Documents folder) first, to see if it is worth your money. Registering it won't necessarily fix any problem you've got -- we don't know why your system is crashing after 70 minutes in any case. Certainly an unregistered FSUIPC is doing far less than a registered version would be. If you want, instead, to determine the reason for the crash there are other steps to take, as i tried to explain last time. One other possibility, for instance, is a corrupted weather download -- if you are using FS's real weather facilities. One of the few things FSUIPC is doing when unregistered is getting weather data from FS in case any application program wants to read it. Unless some add-on you are using actually uses FSUIPC for anything, it is doing virtually nothing else, just sitting in a loop reading weather once or twice per second.

Pete Dowson Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 <Data>uiautomationcore.dll</Data> ... <Data>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\fsx.exe</Data> <Data>C:\Windows\system32\uiautomationcore.dll</Data> Does anything stand out there? Yes: this is nothing whatsoever to do with FSUIPC, but it is the well-known problem of the Windows 7 version of UIAUTOMATIONCORE.DLL not being compatible with FSX. You'll find solutions over on AVSIM's FSX Forum where this has been a recurrent theme. For example: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/360394-fsx-ctd/page__p__2233535__hl__uiautomationcoredll__fromsearch__1#entry2233535 and http://forum.avsim.net/topic/334306-fsx-fatal-error/page__hl__uiautomationcoredll__fromsearch__1 Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
